The Master of Business & Technology (MBT) Program aims to equip managers and other professionals with the skills and knowledge to be effective in a contemporary business environment where the rapid rate of technological change and development has a significant impact on the success of the modern organisation.

Students can customise their individual program to focus on improving business management and/or technology management competencies and knowledge. A unique combination of courses provides participants with an array of intellectual tools to manage business as well as technology, and where these two aspects of management intersect.

All candidates must have at least two years relevant professional experience and hold a prior tertiary degree to gain entry. Candidates who have the relevant professional experience but do not have a prior tertiary degree may enter at Graduate Certificate level and may articulate to the Masters level if they meet academic requirements. MBT learning is enriched by a student cohort of mature-age professionals and managers who bring a diversity of experience from a wide cross section of industry. Participants benefit immediately by applying core course concepts to their workplace and experience.

The MBT is designed to be undertaken part-time in combination with full-time employment and can be studied either via distance or in face-to-face mode. Online or campus classes are in small groups of approximately 25-28 participants with a dedicated facilitator. Online classes are accessed via secure login on the Internet while campus classes run for 1.5 hours per week and are held in the evenings on weeknights.
